After the German occupation, a businessman (Vasilis Mitsakis) does not tell his sick daughter (Katia Dandoulaki) that her beloved is dead and instead hires an aristocratic fortune-hunter (Christos Politis) to pretend to be his daughter’s beloved. Although his daughter suspects the truth, she accepts the man. She wants to end her life with the illusion that the man who is close to her now is the same man she once loved.
